Get back to nature at this beautiful reverse-level property. Sitting within a large private country estate close to the Somerset/Devon border, its original barn features are complemented by an open-plan living space and two en-suite bedrooms ideal for a grown-up getaway. Bring a couple of canine companions – they’ll love dashing around in their own exercise fields.

Less than 2 miles from lively Wiveliscombe, this handsome holiday home is a haven of calm, sitting in the shadow of the Brendon Hills and surrounded by nature. Stylish and skilfully renovated, the former barn is warm and welcoming, with two sanctuary-like double bedrooms on the lower floor each boasting an en-suite shower room for ultimate comfort and convenience. Upstairs, the open-plan living space features exposed structural beams and a huge picture window. Full of character, this room includes an inviting lounge area complete with Smart TV, a dining suite and sleek kitchen. Enjoy food and drinks on the patio to the front of the property – outdoor dining furniture, sun loungers and a BBQ are provided. Afterwards, take a stroll through the estate where you’ll find woodlands, pastures and riverside walks alongside unfenced ponds and a small lake; the dogs can enjoy a run in their own designated fields. There is private parking for two cars.

The farm has fishing rights on the River Tone and is a perfect base for walks, with the Brendons, Quantocks and Blackdown Hills all within 10.5 miles. For more outdoor adventures, head to the heather-clad moorland of Exmoor National Park, 9 miles away, or seek out the sea breeze at Doniford Beach (13 miles) and Kilve Beach (16 miles). Enjoy a further taste of local life in Wiveliscombe (2 miles), home to numerous shops, galleries, and two breweries.

Wow, what a great cottage. We had a wonderful week at Bramble Cottage with friends and their dog, to celebrate a big birthday. It was spotlessly clean and incredibly well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Peter, Christine and Sharon were so welcoming, friendly and helpful. Great hosts. Not only was it heavenly for us to sit outsRead moreide in the sunshine with a glass of wine or beer enjoying the peace and quiet, but our greyhound doggie friend had a fantastic time up and down the doggie run and meeting the horses. I would not hesitate to recommend this beautiful cottage. Hide

Comfy, cosy and contemporary accommodation that was very dogcentric, with our cocker spaniel wonderfully catered for with recommended walks, additional towels, extra treats and plenty of dog throws.
